Allow me to preface this with a warning: This band is not for the faint of heart. Stunt Cock is based out of Austin,Texas and play a crushing blend of metal, hardcore, and straight up rock on their eponymous debut.

On "Lou", the band go almost rockabilly with a raspy and rapid delivery nobody, including I, saw coming.

While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us “that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas,” we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth.

And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.
